Hull City have announced that Mohamed Diame will miss up to three weeks after injuring his knee earlier this week.
The midfielder, who joined the Tigers from West Ham United in the summer, limped out of the team's 1-1 draw with Everton on Wednesday evening.
The injury has been assessed by the club's medical staff, and it has been determined that he will be sidelined for two to three weeks with the problem.
The Senegal international has scored four goals in 11 appearances in the Premier League this season.
